Well here it is. The Wizard. This play book drove me nuts. I had put it off for the longest time because I had no idea how I was going to approach it. Wizards always seem to be the most complicated regardless of which system you’re running. I was just about ready to make a…

The True Believer is your Father Forthill and Knight of the Cross all rolled into one. This is the play book you want to pick if you want to be a righteous warrior of the light. The True Believer isn’t tied down to a particular religion or ideal. While they all have to follow some…

Yesterday I showed the physical side of the Fae. Today we’re doing the social side. The Emissary is all that is favors and debts with the faeries. The Emissary can be a Knight of the Court but doesn’t have to be. If you pick the right moves you can pull it off easily. All Emissaries…

Welcome to week two of Dresden World. Just to fill in those who are first tuning in, I’m working on a Dresden Files hack for Apocalypse World. I’m getting ideas from the books, Urban Shadows, and the FATE hack. A Changeling is someone who has a faerie parent and a mortal one. Mind you that…

When I refer to Mortals in the Dresden-verse I’m talking about the vanilla people with no special powers. While every other playbook I made gives everyone some form of magic or super human ability the mortal playbook keeps things in the realm of possibility for every day Joe Shmoe. This by no means makes the…

For the past…jeez it’s been a year now…I’ve been working on a hack for Apocalypse World. One of my favorite book series is Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. It’s about a wizard who lives in modern day Chicago. You can find him in the yellow pages under Wizard. Dresden’s world is like ours. Most people…
